AIM: Although many reports have shown that Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) is effective for postoperative urinary continence, the postoperative voiding status and sexual function associated with this technique have not ...
BACKGROUND: To compare the quality of life (QOL) in patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) or low-dose-rate brachytherapy (LDR-BT) for prostate cancer.
The Ki-67 labeling index (Ki-67 LI) is a strong prognostic marker in prostate cancer, although its analysis requires cumbersome manual quantification of Ki-67 immunostaining in 200-500 tumor cells. To enable automated Ki-67 LI assessment in routine c...
Penile shortening is a recognized but neglected side effect of prostate cancer treatment. In this study we explore the effect of maximal urethral length preservation (MULP) technique on penile length preservation after robot assisted laparoscopic pro...
PURPOSE: This study investigated the oncological and functional outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RaRP) in high-risk and very high-risk prostate cancer patients.
BACKGROUND: Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is the gold standard for diagnosis of lymph node involvement (LNI) in patients with prostate cancer. The Roach formula, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) calculator, and Briganti 2012 nomog...
We compared the impact of treatment strategies on postoperative complications and prognosis between robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) plus extended pelvic lymph-node dissection (ePLND) and RARP plus neoadjuvant chemohormonal therapy (NCHT) ...
